Well, Homer remembers the Ice Bowl game, and Lombardi and Jerry Kramer and all that. But he also remembers there was no OSHA back then, and fewer lawyers.

The last time Homer saw an NWS forecast that stopped him in his tracks like this one was the last week of August, 2005, when a forecaster in the New Orleans Office put out a warning of unprecedented destruction and saying that life as we know it would be impossible for months in areas directly hit by Hurricane Katrina.
